Not every place in America looks like this. But, then again, every place in America doesn't look like where I live: Washington, DC. A lot, a very lot, of American is small towns in a rural setting and relatively little of America is large, crowded cities. It always amazes me how much of America is "empty", with no one living on it, no houses, no malls, no roads, nothing. You see this part of America best from the inside of a coast-to-coast airplane. It is with comfort that I look down on these places for these are the places where there is still hope that we can someday get it right.
